Growth and healing are a huge part of our life process. And, that doesn't mean it isn't hard. Everything we experience molds who we are and how we see ourselves and the world. Sometimes those experiences are really rough. Our current society is one that encourages people to “pick themselves up by the bootstraps” and keep moving forward without help. There is nothing wrong with getting support on your journey. A new perspective and support could be just what you need to move forward in your life in a more fulfilling way. I believe we all have what we need already inside of us. Sometimes we just need a little help to remember it.

Why the name Pink House Counseling? I have worked with children and families for over a decade. I was working with a neuro divergent kiddo who saw lots of different therapists, a speech therapist, occupational therapists, etc. I had a pink dollhouse in my office, and I was dubbed the "pink house counselor." What creativity on their part! I love working with kids and am passionate about creating a safe, warm, and empathetic environment where we can work on struggles in school, parent child relationships, behaviors, early child childhood trauma, grief and loss, or anxiety and depression; and parents we won't leave you out!

I am accepting children-adult clients! Do you think you feel things too deeply? Or that whatever normal is, you are next to it? If so, I can relate! My goal is to create a space where those I work with are not labeling themselves as "the problem," or for them to feel powerless in their big feelings and behavior patterns. Instead of asking why you felt too much or did xyz wrong, we should be asking what you have done right to make it this far. I take a strengths-based approach to therapy. We will explore your experiences and interactions through play, art and story-telling in order to accomplish your goals and celebrate who you are!

Physical and emotional hygiene are equally important. When we are not tending to our mental wellness, like our physical health, this too can result in suffering and misery. Most of us were taught to give all we have for others, and then some. How do we balance caring for ourselves and others? Learning to balance our wants with those of others can be a difficult habit to break out of. With willingness, courage, and help, I believe everyone can learn new skills and understanding to create a life with less chaos and more contentment. “I never said it would be easy, I only said it would be worth it.” Mae West - Therapy in a nutshell.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists

How does solution-focused therapy work?

The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.

Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?

Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.

How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?

Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.

Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?

Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
